16．New Zealand fishermen caught what may prove to be a world-record-breaking colossal squid．
In the cold，dark waters of the Antarctic hides a creature with eight arms，two super long tentacles（触须）and eyes as big as dinner plates．Sound like something out of a science fiction movie？Think again．
On February 21，New Zealand fishermen landed a colossal squid at the length of a school bus．They had been fishing with long lines for Chilean sea bass in the waters off the coast of New Zealand when they caught the rare squid．With two hours of hard work，the crew skillfully pulled the creature into a net and dragged it aboard their ship．
Scientists evaluate that the animal weighs about a half ton and is about 40feet long．That would make this colossal squid the biggest on record．
First identified in 1925after two tentacles were found in a whale's stomach，the colossal squid has long been a mystery．The animals are not easy to observe because they can go down to ocean depths of 6，500feet．What scientists do know from studying the bodies of a half dozen colossal squids is that they are fierce hunters．
The recently captured colossal squid has been frozen to keep it for scientific study．It will be transported to New Zealand's national museum，Te Papa，in the capital city of Wellington．Experts believe it to be the first adult male ever caught undamaged．Scientists hope to learn more about the colossal squid's diet，behavior and reproductive patterns．
"Scientists will be very interested in this amazing creature，"said New Zealand Fisheries Minister Jim Anderson．"It adds immeasurably to our understanding of the marine environment．"

29．Why is it usually difficult for experts to observe the squid？C
A．Because it moves too fast．
B．Because it is too large．
C．Because it can go down to deep ocean．
D．Because it is dangerous．
30．What can be inferred from the passage？A
A．The fishermen had some difficulty catching the large squid．
B．The squid is from a science fiction story．
C．Scientists know much about the colossal squid．
D．The fishermen often meet colossal squids．
31．What have people decided to do with the huge squid？C
A．To make it into food．
B．To set a world record．
C．To do research on it．
D．To display it for visitors．
32．What would be the best title for the passage？B
A．Scientific research on squid
B．The biggest squid ever found
C．The lifestyle of the colossal squid
D．How the fishermen caught the squid．

3．The Cuban iguana is a species of lizard（蜥蜴）of the iguana family．It is the largest of the West Indian rock iguanas，one of the most endangered groups of lizards． This species with red eyes and a thick tail is one of the largest lizards in the Caribbean．
The Cuban iguana is primarily herbivorous； 95% of its diet consists of the leaves，flowers and fruits from as many as 30plant species，including the seaside rock bush and various grasses．However，Cuban iguanas occasionally consume animal matter，and individuals have been observed eating the dead flesh of birds，fish and crabs．The researchers wrote that quite a few people on Isla Magueyes could have caused this incident．
The Cuban iguana is distributed throughout the rocky southern coastal areas of mainland Cuba and its surrounding islands with a wild population booming on Isla Magueyes，Puerto Rico．It is also found on the Cayman Islands of Little Cayman and Cayman Brac，where a separate subspecies occurs．Females guard their nest sites and often nest in sites half destroyed by Cuban crocodiles．To avoid the attack from them，the Cuban iguana often makes its home within or near prickly-pear cact（仙人掌）．
In general the species is in decline，more quickly on the mainland than on the outlying islands．One of the reasons for their decline is habitat destruction caused by the over consuming of farm animals，housing development，and the building of tourist resorts on the beaches where the animals prefer to build their nests．Although the wild population is in decline，the numbers of iguanas have been sharply increased as a result of captive-breeding（圈养）and other conservation programs．

25．The underlined word"herbivorous"（Paragraph 2）probably meansC．
A．dangerous
B．gentle
C．plant-eating
D．flesh-eating
26．Why does the Cuban iguana build its nest near prickly-pear cacti？D
A．To keep itself cool．
B．To get the food easily．
C．To stay away from people．
D．To avoid crocodiles'attack．
27．How many reasons are mentioned for the habitat destruction？B
A．Two．
B．Three．
C．Four．
D．Five．
28．What's the author's purpose of writing the text？A
A．To give us a brief introduction to the Cuban iguana．
B．To show he is concerned about the Cuban iguana．
C．To explain reasons for the Cuban iguana's decline．
D．To draw people's attention to the endangered Cuban iguana．

    David Lasry believed the pet was simply hungry after two weeks of wandering．Evelyn said her son seems to have overcome his fright by thinking of himself as a hero cowboy as he rode in the back of the police car to the hospital．
"I told Teddy he's a pretty snake，a nice pet snake who got out of his cage，"Evelyn said．"But he asked，‘Why did he bite my finger，Mamma？'And I said，‘Because he saw that you are a big boy，Teddy，in your cowboy outfit and he got scared．'"
